Thank you for your request for a student representative to sit on a misconduct panel.

Our pool of students, nominated by the UMSU President, have received training in the workings of discipline committee hearings. As you may know, student representatives on these panels are an integral part of formal investigations of academic misconduct. It gives students who receive an allegation the opportunity to be heard not only by senior academics within a faculty but also by another student who is their peer.

Has the student receiving the allegation been given 10 days to respond to the allegation notice as per section 5.38 of the policy?*

Yes

No, the allegation notice did not inform the student that they had 10 days to respond

Unfortunately, we cannot nominate a student member panel until the student has been notified in writing that they have 10 days to respond to an allegation notice. Once the student has been notified, please contact us again using this form.

Has the student receiving the allegation been given 7 days’ notice of the time and place of the committee meeting during which the hearing will be conducted as per section 5.41 of the policy?*

Yes

No

No, because the student has waived this right in writing

Has it been explained to the student that waiving that right may compromise their ability to meaningfully prepare for the hearing and seek help from the Advocacy Service?*

Yes

No

Unfortunately, we cannot nominate a student member panel until the student has been given 7 days’ notice of the time and place of the committee meeting in writing.

We also cannot nominate a panel member until the student has been advised of how waiving their rights may have a negative affect on their preparations for the hearing.

Once the student has been notified, please contact us again using this form.
